I read on reddit that you have to change the TNK_VOLL_ANZEIGE to 12 (which is 9 liter) to get the gas guage to properly recognize 2.4 gallons. Has anyone tried this to get the gas guage to properly detect 2.4 gallons? Tank Voll Anzeige in German literally translates to "Tank full value", so...

I tested triggers for both entering and leaving an area and it worked fine. I was hoping to have my garage door close once I leave the garage, but the BMW widget takes a bit too long to come up when you first start the car that I think it will be easier for me to just "press the button" to...

Sounds like you should get on Autoguard to get you a new charger, although they are probably right that in their contract it's not considered part of the car. BMW is under no obligation to replace the charger for free. Why don't you purchase a cheap L1 charger off of ebay? I use my Chevy Volt...

Just tried it out today and it worked perfectly. I don't have GarageIO, so instead I connected it to run a Stringify app which then opens my garage door via Insteon! Love it!

I average 4.3mi/KWh on my 2015 REX; however, I think the calculations the car is doing may be off. It doesn't seem to take into consideration "recooperation" or regen in the usage calculations. The iDrive screen has a separate section for showing how much energy was regenerated and while...

I don't have a 2017, so can't verify; however, the combined EPA MPG of the REX engine went from 40mpg in 2016 to 35mpg in 2017. The logical cause for the drop in mpg is an bump up in output of the REX engine.

Motor mount bolt is covered under warranty. I just got mine replaced under warranty when I brought my car in for its schedule brake service.

Apparently there is discussion in the Facebook group about the latest SOM software update causing a miscalculation to occur at low SOC that could prevent the REX from turning on when it should. Apparently BMW has just become aware of this bug and they issued a patch which requires an IRAP...

I don't live in an icy climate, however, there is this one driveway to a local restaurant that I generally enter at an off angle. Now, when I enter the driveway quickly and there is water on it and I let off on the accelerator, I can feel the regen braking kick in, but if the rear wheels begin...

2017+ models have a upgraded REX engine that can produce more kWh. It seems for the older models, ~70 mph is about the speed the REX can maintain without losing SOC, I'd imagine it must be higher in the 2017+ models.

I have an '15 REX non CPO, and maybe I've just been lucky but I haven't experienced any problems. Recently had my car in for the scheduled brake fluid change and they updated by firmware. I've since coded my car, unlocked the extra fuel tank storage, enabled enhanced bluetooth, video in motion...

I've never had a problem with my REX coming on automatically at 6.5% SOC. I live in So Cal, and we don't have extreme cold weather here. REX just powers on and I can drive until I run out of gas.

Thanks... i've got about 50% SOC in my 2015 Rex and the new range calcs show about 46 miles of range.

Thanks! Missed that link!

My car is not coded (yet). Just bought my i3 Rex two weeks ago.

The dvdinmotion.com site seems to only refer to allowing video playback while in motion. Does their 'patch' also allow hold mode and other features in the i3, or is it only for the multimedia functionality?

Took my 2015 i3 REX in for service today and beside the brake fluid service, the two other services they are performing are: B612116 Service Action: Program Control Units Range I01 Replace engine mount screw connection, program control units B22 04 15 Anyone know what the 1st one does? The...

The moderate increase in REX range from 2016 -> 2017 can be explained by the additional power BMW bestowed upon the REX engine. The old REX got 40MPG, while the new REX is rated at 35MPG (due to the higher engine output now avail), presumably due to the lawsuits brought by customers over the...
